Following a great deal of interest at Brent Friends of the Earth's Green Fair in Willesden Green, this new group formed for eco-minded residents in the Willesden area. Some fantastic people from all over Willesden, Cricklewood, Dollis Hill and beyond have already signed up, and we kicked off with 32 people at our first meeting in June 2011. Thanks to Transition K2K for start-up support and hosting our group until we set up our very own site.

Comment by Viv Stein on July 21, 2011 at 23:27: Hello all, and welcome to new members. We've now got over 60 people on a wider mailing list, so if you're not already on that, get in touch.

Last week's meeting was another success. I enjoyed a sea purslane omlette the next day - just one of the great tastes from our food swap.

Just doing a round up before next week's core group and our first meeting about the project to green Sainsbury's in Willesden.

What's great about this group is people are bringing their friends and next door neighbours along. Everyone's really enthusiastic. Hope we can keep it going!

Next main meeting will be September - look out for more details soon.

Comment by Sandra De Andrade on July 16, 2011 at 9:57: I missed this Thursday 14th July :-( I try to make the next one. Please keep me updated.

Comment by Viv Stein on July 6, 2011 at 12:05: Thanks. Hope we can keep this up by making our next meeting on July 14th even better. See http://ttkensaltokilburn.ning.com/events/transition-willesden-scree...

Besides the film we're having a local food swap, so hope everyone can bring along something to that, besides plenty of ideas for a discussion. We'll be following up our ideas from last time, with food and drink to keep us going. See you there!

Comment by michael hughes on June 12, 2011 at 11:01: that was a good start meeting, its great to see so many people with different ideas for making willesden green (that names also a great idea!)

Comment by Viv Stein on June 10, 2011 at 20:15: There are some great local residents' associations in the area.

Mapesbury Residents Association (whose gardening group are keen fruit harvesters) have their open gardens this Sunday, see
